Soon the battle between the two villages was coming to an end, and it was no surprise that the Li family in Liulin Village won the victory.

Because Liulin Village had left a sense of proportion in this fight, only a dozen villagers surnamed Zhang in Fengshutun were injured at this time;

But Zhang Guanggong, the patriarch of the Zhang family, was beaten to death, and saw that his head was swollen like a pig's head, his front teeth were knocked out, his ribs were broken in half, his legs were broken, and the whole person was crawling on the ground like a dead dog.

Of course, the Zhang family of Fengshutun at the scene also slipped through the net, and saw a sturdy descendant, that is, the young man named Huzi, although he also hung up the lottery, at this time he put down a few Li family members, and rushed out of the encirclement of the Li family, and quickly fled to Fengshutun.

Soon Huzi fled back to the tunzi, he hurriedly arrived at the ancestral hall, and then vigorously struck the gong used for the usual "warning", and suddenly the deafening gong sound of "clang" quickly spread all over the corners of the tunzi, which also conveyed the message of "something big" to the gentlemen in the street, and called on the clansmen to quickly gather to the ancestral hall after hearing the gong.

After a while, I saw scattered and noisy sounds on the street, and the Zhang family rushed to the ancestral hall without stopping, and after a while, they saw more than 300 people gathered in front of the Zhang family ancestral hall, all of whom were the men in charge of each family.

At this moment, an old man who was close to the age of a sixtieth birthday stood up from the crowd and walked towards the descendant named Huzi.

I heard him ask angrily, "Zhang Yuhu, didn't you follow the patriarch to work on the banks of the Qingshui River?" If you don't work hard, why do you come back and ring the warning gong randomly? Do you know that this gong has not been struck for ten years, and this gong cannot be struck indiscriminately, unless there is a foreign enemy or there is a disaster of extermination? ”

At this time, Zhang Yuhu panted and said, "Third grandfather, isn't this a big deal?" That's why I rang the warning gong. Our patriarch was beaten by the people of Liulin Village, and was seriously injured and worried about his life. Moreover, more than a dozen people in our camp were wounded, and fifty or sixty people were injured and detained. So I took the opportunity to escape and tell my brothers in the village about this great disaster. ”

This old man, who is called his third grandfather, is an old Xiucai, named "Zhang Maochun", one of the ancestors in the village, and his status in the tunzi is no less than that of the patriarch Zhang Guanggong, but his prestige is above Zhang Guanggong, so Zhang Guanggong is polite to him on weekdays.

When he heard this, he was immediately shocked, and he hurriedly asked Zhang Yuhu: "What's the matter, there is a conflict between our Tunzi and Liulin Village, Huzi, you can tell me in detail as soon as possible."

At this time, Zhang Yuhu said hesitantly: "It's good to teach the third grandfather to know that this incident was caused by the land dispute." On weekdays, there is a conflict over the ownership of land between the two villages, but there is no fight;

However, the responsibility is in Liulin Village, they did it first, and they hit the patriarch first, so at the scene, the fathers and villagers in my tunzi were also angry, and then they fought with Liulin Village.

They obviously came prepared, they all brought clubs, knives and guns, and our people were few and weak, and they were suddenly like lambs falling into the mouth of a tiger and being slaughtered. ”

As soon as Zhang Maochun heard this, he noticed that Zhang Yuhu was not telling the truth, and he thought that Liulin Village would never take the initiative to provoke trouble; It must be the people in his tun who have done bad things to hurt the Li family in Liulin Village, and it is their own patriarch who led people to encroach on their fertile land, so it caused the anger of Liulin Village.

At this time, he asked coldly: "Huzi, don't hide it, is it that the patriarch has gone to occupy the fertile land of Liulin Village again, I objected to the patriarch stretching out his claws to Liulin Village, not to rob the fertile land of his village, and I saw that he didn't care about it." Huzi said quickly, we must let us know the ins and outs of the matter, in order to find out what the crux of the conflict is, and to find out the countermeasures. ”

At this time, Zhang Yuhu said reluctantly: "The patriarch took our group to the Li family's clan business field in Liulin Village today, and asked us to destroy and destroy the boundary pillars and marking stones, and then we want to seize these lands and become the land of Fengshutun." ”

As soon as Zhang Maochun heard this, he saw that his beard was all open, and he immediately became angry, and he immediately climbed a high platform outside the ancestral hall, and then raised his arms and shouted.

I heard him say: "Originally, my Tunzi and Liulin Village have always had a good relationship, after all, many of the villagers in the two villages are in-laws, and there are many people who also have a relationship with each other; In the past two years, after Zhang Guanggong became the patriarch of my Zhang family, he repeatedly encroached on the fields of Liulin Village, causing the relationship between the two villages to plummet, and he became enemies.

This time he is going to occupy the Li family's clan business again, isn't he fainting, what is it? No wonder the Li family jumped to their feet, what is the difference between this and digging other people's ancestral graves? ”

At this time, another middle-aged man walked out of the crowd, and he said to Zhang Maochun: "Third uncle, you have said a little too much, isn't the patriarch for our tunzi?" We have already seized 200 acres of fertile land from Liulin Village, which is like a work of expanding the territory! It's all the work of the patriarch. ”

At this time, a young man who looked like a scholar stood up and said to the middle-aged man: "Zhang Jianchong, don't put a high hat on Zhang Guanggong, may I ask if the villagers have gained any of these 200 acres of fertile land?" It's not all in his name and his fox friends. You have also reaped the benefits, and I heard that you have also received fifteen acres of fertile land by the river. ”

The middle-aged man named Zhang Jianchong was so scared by him that his face was red and his neck was thick, and he saw him retreat into the crowd in a gloomy manner, and he no longer stood up for Zhang Guanggong.

At this time, Zhang Maochun said: "Zhang Guanggong is no longer worthy of being the patriarch of the Zhang family, and after dealing with the dispute with the Li family in Liulin Village, we will remove him and re-elect the patriarch; The most important task now is to rescue the people who were captured by Liulin Village. ”

After he finished speaking, he looked at the clansmen in the audience, and then said: "Everyone uses their brains, thinks of ideas, speaks out, brainstorms, and comes up with the most feasible method." ”

The people of Fengshutun were thinking hard about the aftermath of Liulin Village, at this time the cold wind was tighter, so that the people in the open air were even more cold, some people were thinly dressed, and some could not bear the cold cold, so they hurriedly elected thirty representatives of the clan to discuss, and the rest went home to keep warm.

Zhang Maochun and the deputies entered the ancestral hall, and after some discussion, they came up with a final resolution, that is, to rebuild and apologize to Liulin Village, and return the 200 acres of fertile land that had been encroached upon in Liulin Village.

At this time, Zhang Maochun personally went to the scene to say that he took more than 100 young descendants to the place of the incident, and just walked a short distance, he saw Lang Xulin, the head of the township soldiers, with more than 100 township soldiers, he saw Zhang Maochun, and hurriedly greeted him.

I heard him say: "Mr. Zhang, I heard that there was a fight between your Tunzi and Liulin Village, so I came to help your Zhang family to deter the stubborn and small people in Liulin Village, and also to maintain the face of the Great Liao Kingdom." ”

Zhang Maochun knew that someone had reported to him, and when he saw Zhang Jianchong in front of the township soldiers, he suddenly became angry, secretly scolded him for eating things inside and out, and then glared at Zhang Jianchong with a gloomy face.

At this time, Zhang Maochun unceremoniously refused: "Thank you Lang Dutou for your kindness, we have already thought of a solution, so we won't work for Lang Dutou." Please lead the troops back. ”

Lang Xulin's face suddenly turned ugly when he heard this, but he knew that although the other party was just a showman, he had a good name in the state and county, so he could only hold back his anger and didn't dare to make a mistake.

He said with some surprise: "Mr. Zhang, when you say this, you will see the outside, and besides, the duty of my township soldiers is to protect the safety of one party, of course, we must go to the scene of the weapon fight to maintain law and order, deter the young people, and finally calm down the incident." ”

After Zhang Maochun heard this, he also knew that he couldn't get rid of him, but he didn't pay attention to him, so he was clear and went his own way.

After a while, I arrived at the scene of the conflict, and saw that there were more than 600 members of the Li family in Liulin Village.

Seeing this posture at the scene, even Lang Dutou had the idea of retreating, so he led the team to stop at a distance of 300 meters from the Li family crowd in Liulin Village, and then hesitated.

Zhang Maochun came to the front of Li Weitang, the patriarch of the Li family, at this time, and then said straight to the point: "Patriarch Li, the old man is here on behalf of all the Zhang clan members of Mapleshutun this time, first of all, I apologize for the unrighteous actions of the former patriarch Zhang Guanggong, and I hope that the patriarch Li will forgive me for the big mistake made by the Zhang family in the face of the old man, and the old man guarantees that the Zhang family of Fengshutun will not do such a dirty thing again; Then I hope that Patriarch Li will raise his noble hand and release the detained Zhang family. ”

Li Weitang was also happy in his heart, this old man of the Zhang family has always been quite famous, but he has been living in the county seat, ignoring clan affairs, that is, he has just returned to his hometown this year, and with his prestige, he will definitely dispel the Zhang family's covetousness for the fields in Liulin Village.

He said with a smile: "I am relieved that Elder Zhang came here, in the past two years, under the leadership of the patriarch Zhang Guanggong, the Zhang family of Fengshutun has repeatedly bullied and oppressed my Liulin Village, and has repeatedly encroached on the fertile land of my village, and now it is even more to encroach on my Li family's clan farm, which is tolerable, which is unbearable, so I was forced to make this decision and resist by force." ”

Then he said: "Since Elder Zhang has made a promise, our Li family believes in the sincerity of the Zhang family, and we can return the detained Zhang family." ”

At this time, a voice suddenly sounded in the crowd of the Li family: "Patriarch, we must settle the land dispute with the Zhang family once and for all, first of all, ask the Zhang family to return the 200 acres of fertile land that encroached on my Li family, and secondly, the two sides re-measure the land and confirm the boundary between the two villages." ”

Zhang Maochun said at this time: "My words are not finished yet, our Zhang family is not unreasonable people, at first we were deceived by others, and then we were consumed by the desire for profit, so we made the unjust act of occupying the Li family's land; So we also discussed, that is, to return all the land and property that had been usurped by the Li family. ”

The principals of the two villages were discussing the aftermath when they heard the rumbling sound of iron hooves, and they saw that the loess was rolling on the dirt road in the north, and a troop of armored cavalry rushed to this place, about two hundred iron horsemen, each of whom carried a large bow on his back, and a quiver on his waist on the right side, and a saber on the left; On horseback hung a mace.

From time to time, the iron cavalry came to the soldiers of Nadu Township, led by a young captain, and when I got closer, it was Xiao Fuhu, who was now a captain of the leather room army, commanding two hundred soldiers and horses;

I saw that he was wearing a phoenix winged hood on his head, and he was dressed in bright light armor, with rough lines, a round beast face, and an inner lining made of fur; Combat boots have an iron instep; At first glance, I feel majestic, like a heavenly general.

At this time, Lang Xulin, the head of the township soldiers, hurriedly saluted and reported to his home; The village soldiers in the back also saluted, and the cavalry of the leather room army also saluted in return.

Xiao Fuhu also noticed that there were a large number of people gathering in front of him, he immediately raised his vigilance, and began to ask Lang Xulin for details.

I heard him ask: "Lang Dutou, what happened in front, why are there nearly a thousand people gathered here?" ”

Lang Xulin replied: "General Qiyu, the side with the most people is from Liulin Village in the Great Song Dynasty, and the side with few people and injured and captured is the people from Fengshutun in Daliao, and the two sides have a fight over the dispute. ”

When Xiao Fuhu heard this, he immediately said angrily: "Lang Dutou, since our people have been bullied, why don't you go to the rescue, why don't you disperse Song Dog?" ”

Lang Xulin hurriedly replied: "General Qiyu, I also want to go to the rescue, but the head of the Zhang family does not agree, so I can only follow and guard closely in case something happens to them; Moreover, the soldiers of our country are poorly armed and have few people;

You see that the villagers of Liulin Village came prepared, and some of them were generally from Orion background, quite familiar with martial arts, and had all kinds of weapons in their hands, especially more than 100 bows and arrows. I waited for the villagers to rush over, as for the slaughter. ”

When Xiao Fuhu heard this, he also felt that what Lang Xulin said was reasonable, so he didn't criticize him anymore.

At this time, he looked at the crowd of the Li family in Liulin Village with some disdain, and said secretly: "In front of my Da Liaopi room army, it is just a group of local chickens and dogs; Today, I will take the heads of these Song dogs to sacrifice the flag. ”

Xiao Fuhu began to wave the flag to make pre-war deployments, and he asked his subordinates to strangle all these Song dogs, leaving no mouth alive, and cutting off their heads for military merit.
